Article

Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word

One of my all time favorite songs is by Elton

John. It's called "Sorry Seems to be the Hardest

Word." The title of that song is a fitting accolade that

many of us would do well to remember. It's

sometimes so hard to say sorry even when we know

we probably should.

How often do you think a marriage could be

saved, by either the husband or the wife, if one of

them would be the first to say sorry? How many

friendships have been completely destroyed over

something very small? In time the problem escalated

and then no one had the temperament to start the

reconciliation by saying that one little word, sorry.

Finally, how about churches? How many churches

have been divided, split and splintered because no

one had the courage or the will to say sorry.

In our lives you and I don't always have to be

right. Even when we think we are, it might do us all

some good to just say sorry sometimes to those we

disagree with. Elton sang that sorry was a hard word

to say. However, it really doesn't have to be. We just

have to humble ourselves, take a deep breath and try

it. The results may surprise you and get you a little

farther down life's yellow brick road. Mike Lisle
